| Description | In this contribution we describe the characteristics of some grammar textbooks of Italian as L1 and as L2 in order to verify what kind of language is proposed in the classes and what the problems related to the teaching of grammar in the context of contemporary Italian might be. If the grammar text constitutes for the Italian-speaking students an instrument of metalinguistic reflection and the exercise of pragmatic competence in the various communicative situations, it is the first linguistic reference for the immigrant student immersed in the heterogeneity of the class context during the Italian curricular hours. We have done this both with reference to Italian students, in order to examine how much of the theoretical debate on language teaching and, more generally, on the learning of an L1 has filtered through the most recent grammars, and by looking at a multilingual and multicultural school, in order to hypothesise paths for the acquisition of Italian L2 that can already be implemented in the classroom with the tool available to the language education teacher. |
